he went 8-4 and ended up 5th in the SWC the season before he resigned. Got blown out by USC in the Bluebonnet Bowl.
Started out his final season like gangbusters then got blown out by UH (his team got blown out in big games), and then lost to a crappy Baylor team at home, to start conference play 1-2. He wanted the President to back him up and didn't get the response he wanted. He had a tough time handling the pressure. Was it a mistake to not back him - maybe. He turned A&M around for sure. But he lost every big game while he was there.
